Danny Hall sucks, plain and simple. One of the absolute worst post season managers of all time, and its not even debatable.

Our fate was sealed on the first night when Mark Pope strained his oblique and was out for the rest of the tourney. We brought in Freshmen Matt Grimes who pitched GREAT.

But heres the real coaching blunder.. he didnt start Daniel Palka at DH because of a "lefty lefty" matchup. LOL he's one of our best hitters. The rest of the tournament he had 3 HR's and 7-8 RBI. IDIOT.

Then we had to dig ourselves out of the hole, which we did, but when it was time for MSU.. Hall pulls another turd out of his pocket.

He Started Freshman Deandre Smelter. Who hasnt started a single game this year, has been changing his arm slot, and has only made 3-5 appearences on the season total. WTF? He gets tatooed for a 6 spot. Then hall brings in our 2nd midweek starter who SHOULD HAVE BEEN THERE FROM THE BEGGINNING. He only gave up 1 run the rest of the game basically.

Im over it. Its time for you to hang em up all. fml.

Say what?!!!!5/23/11, GTbaseball: "LOL quit being a homer. Danny hall did a better job. 6 freshmen starters.. lost 10 players to the MLB from last years team. Still Co-ACC champs and National seed. Thanks for playing though."

Kid, just sit down. Ill still stand by my comments. Name a team that lost 10 players to the draft, played 17 freshmen, including starting 5-6 in the everyday lineup.. and still host? We probably overachieved.. credit Danny Hall there.. but he still blows in the postseason.

I'm no "kid;" not by a long shot. Is patronization the only way you know how to deal with something?

I follow the game extremely closely, have for a long time, and I recognize gross inconsistencies in the position of fans when I see them.

It's an old story: They're only as good as their last outing.

Think about it during the off-season.

Once again, sit down. Your point is moot.

Isnt coach of the year awarded for regular season play? We werent even supposed to host this year let alone struggle to make a #2 seed.]]>Tue, 07 Jun 2011 07:39:13 GMThttp://www.perfectgame.org/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=5178

SB, this requires explanation for those Pac-10/OSU fans who don't know WTF you are talking about.

"a Tiger(/War Eagle)"? How do the Georgia (Bulldogs, not Tigers or War Eagles) fit into that equation? Honestly, I don't even know what a War Eagle is....

lol.... Auburn Tigers, who have a tradition with the War Eagle. UGA fits in the equation in that I lived closer to Athens than Auburn, and when I went to their opener vs OSU in 07, they had some of the best fans in all of baseball. Very classy.]]>Mon, 06 Jun 2011 09:27:30 GMThttp://www.perfectgame.org/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=5178

Not sure which one is worse, but Tech had an amazing recruiting class, but they lost a lot of position players from the year before.

Very true. Last years team was stacked and lost almost everyone. Still not sure how last years team managed to choke. This years team I wouldn't have expected to make a run had a few posters not "brought to my attention" that Georgia Tech was light years ahead of Georgia in baseball...]]>Mon, 06 Jun 2011 05:10:48 GMThttp://www.perfectgame.org/forum/messages.aspx?TopicID=5178

I agree that GT is more talk than bite (or sting?), but it is premature to trash their fans' comparison to UGA when UGA's fate in their Regional has not yet been sealed, making that comparison not yet judgeable.
